Switch from 19d to 11b?

January 13th, 2011, 04:29 PM

Greetings all. I enlisted back in December and I ship in February to Knox. Ive been considering a great deal as to what I want from the service and I'm beginning to feel infantry would be better for me. Am I able to switch now? Or will I have to wait till after BCT?

May be able to switch now, but IMHO, it's not worth it. Go to 19D, then if you really want to switch, reclass.

Yea I heard it costs the gov a lot of money to get you to sign your contract and all that good stuff, so if you ask your recruiter to switch you specially this late. He might be a little lot displeased.

If you haven't even gone yet, how do you know you want to switch? My bro in law was a 19D for a few years and loved it. Had a lot of fun, they do a lot of similar work as infantry and even do some recon work as well.
